Overview[edit]
Keto Hummus is a low-carb twist on traditional hummus, replacing chickpeas with cauliflower to reduce carb content while retaining a smooth, creamy texture.
Ingredients[edit]
- 1 medium cauliflower head, cut into florets
- 1/4 cup Tahini
- 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for garnish
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: Paprika and fresh parsley for garnish
Preparation[edit]
1. Steam the cauliflower florets until they are tender, about 10 minutes. 2. Drain the cauliflower and let it cool. 3. In a food processor, combine the steamed cauliflower, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, and minced garlic. 4. Process until smooth and creamy. If needed, add a little water or more olive oil to reach the desired consistency. 5. Season with salt and pepper. 6. Transfer the hummus to a serving dish and garnish with a drizzle of olive oil, a sprinkle of paprika, and some fresh parsley.
Serving Suggestions[edit]
- Serve with keto-friendly veggie sticks, such as cucumber, bell peppers, or celery.
- Use as a spread for keto bread or crackers.
- A perfect side to grilled meats or fish.
